Ice Record Set in Antarctic

In a potential distraction from the news that Arctic sea-ice
extent reached a record low, Antarctic sea ice reached its highest level ever
recorded for the 256th day of the calendar year on Sept. 12. The physical
geography of the two hemispheres is very different, so the effects of global
warming would be seen first in the Arctic and not the Antarctic.

I'm a Master Naturalist and an outdoor enthusiast -- mostly kayaking, and I live on a Peninsula in the Chesapeake Bay. I'm the author of The Nature Fan, Nature Fan Activists, Green Earth Almanac, and Amanda's Geographic. Formerly, I ran the nationally syndicated column "National Green Activism" for The Examiner, and I was a key factor in the success of many campaigns.
